Description: If you insert an image (e.g. from a png file) into a page and rotate it by +/-90 degrees it seems that the original size/orientation is maintained to determine how far the image can be moved on the page. E.g. an image with portrait orientation becomes landscape after rotating by 90° but you cannot move it to the actual top or bottom of the page (but you may move it to a place exceeding the left/right limits of the page). Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open new writer document 2. Insert an image with preferably "drastic" portrait orientation (ratio 1x2) 3. Rotate by 90° 4. Try to move image to the bottom right of the page Actual Results: The image may get positioned too far on the right thereby exceeding the page BUT the image can not get moved to the actual bottom. Expected Results: Image can get moved to the actual bottom right of the page without exceeding the page's print margins. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: The original size/orientation seems to be used for calculating how far the image can be moved. This bug has been around many years and bothers me time and again.
Description: I tried the same steps but it looks the same as yours. Let's try in different version and see what will happen Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open new writer document 2. Insert an image with preferably "drastic" portrait orientation 3. Rotate by 90° 4. Move the image to the bottom right of the page Actual Results: The image become positioned a bit far on the right and cannot move on the bottom. Expected Results: Image could move to the bottom right of the page in the right margin.
I confirm it with Version: 6.5.0.0.alpha0+ (x64) Build ID: 350d25da375f221edfa37309324ce3c68cf297ef CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 18362; UI render: default; VCL: win; Locale: de-DE (de_DE); UI-Language: en-GB Calc: threaded Additional information: It works, if you anchor it to page.
Thanks for checking and your remark! I just tested again using 6.3.4.2 using an image with height 16cm and width 5cm which I rotated clockwise 90°. Anchoring to the page does help regarding left/right/top of the page. Which is actually amazing given that: But still the image cannot be placed on the bottom of the page. The dotted border can be dragged to the bottom (and will stop there correctly so the page is taken into account somehow). But once I release the mouse button the image snaps back to a position about 5.5cm from the bottom. This is exactly the space that would be required to place the image at the bottom if it still was in original orientation.

This Bug unluckily still exists on the newest Dev version 7.1 alpha1 Fixing annoying bugs should have more priority than new features or UI improvements. But I haven't got the permissions to raise the importance.
This behavior started in 6.0 with https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/6675e6eaf999de94d49d7644d5877537fda83239 author Armin Le Grand <Armin.Le.Grand@cib.de> Thu Nov 02 18:28:04 2017 +0100 committer Armin Le Grand <Armin.Le.Grand@cib.de> Sat Nov 18 13:07:43 2017 +0100 RotateFlyFrame3: Initial support added Before this the newly inserted image (anchored to paragraph) could be positioned to the edge of the paper. Also the example file has a page anchored + rotated image that can not be positioned to the very bottom of the page, this behavior also started with the above commit. In recent versions the default anchoring of inserted images is To character, those started to behave incorrectly with the above commit when rotated: now they can not be aligned to the page borders AND their height/width scales are getting changed with each move. This is differently bad. Adding CC to: Armin Le Grand
I can confirm this still exists too. This is probably a duplicate of 115934 (and 124498 is probably linked to this too).
Un-Ccing developer for the moment, old regression & very high workload.
Dear Marcus, To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year. There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present. If you have time, please do the following: Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/ If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice. Please DO NOT Update the version field Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker) Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case) If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/ 2. Test your bug 3. Leave a comment with your results. 4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo'; 4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!
